First Sins Of A Solar Empire: Rebellion DLC Incoming This Summer

Stardock's space strategy title Sins Of A Solar Empire: Rebellion is expanding with the new Forbidden Worlds DLC.

The add-on will release on June 5 for $4.99 with lots of new content to explore. Find out what you can expect from the Stardock's descriptions below and browse through the screen gallery for a first look.

• Four new planet types to colonize and exploit (Barren, Ferrus, Greenhouse, Oceanic), each created with beautiful high-res textures.

• New Planet Specialization System: Dedicate your worlds to either social or industrial output. Devoting your planet to social improvements will increase its population and culture, at the cost of trade income and ship production. Choosing an industrial path will limit your growth and culture, but make your planet a trading and ship building powerhouse.

• 15 new research subjects allow the races to conquer and expand onto the forbidden worlds.

• Discover 40 new planet bonuses during your exploration of the galaxy, unlocking the dark past of the Sins’ universe.

• Unlock five new Steam Achievements and display your mastery of forbidden space

I should start playing this game again. I loved the strategy involved in it although it could make for some frustrating times. sending your fleet to another system moments before the enemy arives in your system has to be the worst.

Looks cool, I guess. I will buy it but I don't like having to buy DLC for DLC.

Also for those that like SoaSE but think it is a little to slow passed, for those that have a very competitive nature and also enjoy Halo you should check out the SoaSE mod Sins of the Prophets. It is fast passed, hard hitting and brings your love of Halo together with your love of watching space ships explode.

Looks awesome, but I'm personally more excited for some of the mods coming to this game. There is a Mass Effect mod called "Dawn of the Reapers" that looks incredible. But, gotta give credit to Stardock for developing such an awesome strategy game.
